### "Not worth the price "

August 12, 2025

5.0

Pros

ActiveCampaign is packed with good features like task automation, which helped us handle our usual tasks quickly. Features like chat made it easy to interact with our clients and leads during marketing campaigns. I also find it easy to use even though it’s a pretty robust software.

Cons

Its price keeps going up over time, but we can’t really say the same about its features, which can be disappointing. We also noticed that getting in touch with human support tends to be impossible.

### "Mi trovo benissimo"

February 1, 2026

5.0

Mi trovo molto bene considerando tutti i fattori in gioco. Tutte le opzioni, l'assistenza e anche il costo mensile, che rimane ancora abbordabile e competitivo

Pros

Quello che mi piace è la semplicità d'utilizzo unita a un gran numero di funzioni. È molto apprezzabile anche l'assistenza, sempre prontamente disponibile

Cons

A volte è lento nel caricare le varie pagine, l'anno scorso per un periodo molto spesso ero bloccato e dava degli errori.

### "The flexible marketing automation that grew with our team."

April 28, 2025

5.0

It allowed us to remain constantly in contact with our customers, strengthen our loyalty programs and increase the number of repeat transactions.

Pros

ActiveCampaign allowed us to start simple and then really scale. We’re using this based on a couple of things. I love how user-friendly the automation builder is it was so easy to set up welcome series, abandoned cart reminders, and loyalty emails.

Cons

Some of the reporting dashboards can be a little clearer. The platform is at times a few extra clicks to dig into how a campaign is performing.

### "KI Auswertungen super"

January 31, 2026

5.0

Pros

Die neue Möglichkeit der KI-Auswertung finde ich super. Kampagnen-Analysen lassen sich jetzt leichter erstellen.

Cons

Leider ist es nicht möglich, einzelne Features upzugraden, sondern nur das Gesamtpaket. Manchmal wäre es praktisch, einzelne Funktionen zuzukaufen.

### "Sehr guter Service"

February 2, 2026

5.0

Pros

Ein all in one Tool. Es macht Spaß active campaign als CRM zu nutzen, vor allem am Anfang meines Businesses.

Cons

Die Ladegeschwindigkeit der Seite ist oftmals langsam. Es ist schade, dass in Automationen die Seite oftmals lange braucht, um sich vollständig zu aktualisieren.

### "Wer sich auskennt, hat viele Möglichkeiten "

September 23, 2025

3.0

Gemischte Erfahrungen, leider oft Frust, da Automatisierungen nicht so funktionieren. Hier wünsche ich mir mehr deutschsprachige Unterstützung.

Pros

Viele Möglichkeiten, dass heißt wenn man die Schritte verstanden hat, dann bietet AC viele Möglichkeiten.

Cons

1\. Komplizierte Einrichtung und Verknüpfung zu den anderen Tools. 2. Man kann viele Schritte nur mit sehr guten Fachkenntnissen machen

### "Best for small businesses!"

February 20, 2025

5.0

Pros

The most robust ESP for small businesses. Love the advanced workflows like engagement tagging, custom fields, CRM-like features, and ease of use relative to how robust it is. If I still needed some advanced features, I'd definitely be using AC still.

Cons

Higher learning curve because of how stacked the features are. My workflows neeeded a lot of trial and error and sometimes just flat out didn't work like it should've. Was truly frustrating!

### "Incredible Marketing Automation and Competitive Pricing"

November 13, 2024

5.0

ActiveCampaign is an excellent platform. I've implemented it for several of my agency's clients and find it very customizable and powerful.

Pros

ActiveCampaign is an incredibly powerful marketing automation platform. It offers a robust and flexible feature set at a competitive price. As an agency and website developer, I like that it's very customizable in terms of integrating with other platforms. ActiveCampaign also continually improves and updates to add new functionality.

Cons

The platform's visual design and user interface aren't quite as polished or modern as competitors like HubSpot.

### "Simple, Reliable, Efficient- One of the best CRMs"

February 27, 2025

5.0

ActiveCampaign is a great tool for email automation and customer engagement. It is very easy to setup and has some powerful features, but can be bit tricky for beginners. The UI could be smoother, but overall, it helps in streamlining workflows and marketing efforts.

Pros

Automation is top-notch: Once set up, it runs seamlessly CRM and Email marketing in one: No need for multiple tools Good segmentation & tagging – Helps in targeting right set of customers

Cons

UI feels outdated: Not as smooth as competitiors Pricing is a bit high: Not the most affordable option Lags at times

### "Powerful email marketing and automation"

November 12, 2024

4.0

Overall, ActiveCampaign is an effective platform for those looking to automate their email marketing and lead nurturing. Despite the initial learning curve, it’s rewarding once you get the hang of it, providing excellent functionality and flexibility.

Pros

The automation capabilities were the highlight. ActiveCampaign allows you to build highly customized workflows, automate follow-ups, and segment audiences easily, all with a visual drag-and-drop editor.

Cons

While robust, ActiveCampaign can feel complex, especially for beginners. Some of the advanced features come with a learning curve, and the higher-tier plans can be costly for small businesses.

### "Super Newsletter Programm"

February 10, 2025

4.0

Ich finde ActiveCampaign ist ein sehr intuitives Programm, was es einfach macht, individuelle Designs, Einstellungen und Kampangen zu erstellen.

Pros

Die einfache Erstellung von Automationen und die übersichtlichen Kampangen

Cons

Bis jetzt nicht viel. Es könnte eine Anleitung für die verschiedenen Möglichkeiten geben. Manches ist nicht ganz so intuitiv.

April 23, 2025

Muy positiva hasta ahora. Las automatizaciones funcionan muy bien.

Pros

Es una plataforma estable y que funciona correctamente, sin contratiempos. Es la mejor que hemos usado hasta ahora (probamos varias antes)

Cons

Tuvimos algunos inconvenientes para cambiar el plan, no funcionó automáticamente, esto podría ser mejor. Poder cambiar a un plan más grande o mas pequeño fácilmente.

### "There's a reason ActiveCampaign is a leader in the industry"

March 2, 2025

5.0

ActiveCampaign is reliable, stable, and a behemoth in the industry for a reason. I do feel that the account managers tend to be just glorified customer support, where they don't really help much and I still have to submit support tickets when we do have problems. Haven't had the best communications with account managers for clients - long response times, unclear communcations. But overall, once it's setup, ActiveCampaign runs like a charm.

Pros

Robust CRM and email marketing - every contact has their own history, complete with ecommerce integrations - making it really easy for customer support and lead nurturing

Cons

It's a bit pricey for small businesses, and there are more affordable solutions that can do similar things - though not as stable as ActiveCampaign

### "Great for smaller businesses, not so great for enterprise"

December 6, 2024

4.0

The app is almost too easy and too simple, which isn't what a more enterprise company would want. It's more of a small to medium business tool. The quality of support also isn't fully there when something goes wrong.

Pros

Super easy to use. Modern UI and very active support team. Clean documentation. Their development team were also quite supportive in helping us build an integration with them.

Cons

I find their automation and customization functionality is limiting. Because of that, we use another tool like Keap to send most of our emails. I don't think our developers find it as friendly to use as other tools available. Also, although they were supportive in helping us build an integration, once we had a problem - that's where the assistance stopped. If something goes wrong, they don't know or don't have the resources to fix it.

MailChimp's automation functionality was practically non-existent. Keap is what we used for everything, but in order to keep our sender score up, we needed to add another email sender for smaller campaigns.

### "Automation engine that helps our business growth."

November 26, 2024

5.0

It has transformed our marketing efforts. We've automated repetitive tasks, personalized our customer journeys, and seen a significant increase in engagement and conversions.

Pros

ActiveCampaign goes beyond basic email marketing. It's a powerful automation platform that helps us nurture leads, build customer relationships, and drive sales. I love how easy it is to create targeted email sequences, personalize messages, and track engagement. The visual automation builder makes it simple to design complex workflows without any coding.

Cons

The sheer number of features can be a bit overwhelming at first. It takes some time to explore and master all the capabilities of ActiveCampaign.

Ich benutze Active Campaign zum Verfassen von Newslettern mit einem schönen Design, was auch meinen Kundinnen gefällt.

Pros

Die Benutzeroberfläche ist sehr gut strukturiert und die E-Mails werden gut zugestellt. Hilfreich sind die Sendeberichte.

Nachteile gibt es soweit nicht. Zumindest habe ich noch keine entdeckt. Ich nutze aber auch bei weitem noch nicht alle Funktionen von Active Campaign.

### "A versatile email automation and customer engagement tool"

March 17, 2025

5.0

Pros

I like its advanced automation builder which has been instrumental in helping us to create complex workflows. I also like the tag based contact management which allows you to organise contacts effectively.

Cons

The pricing scales up quickly as the number of contacts increases which makes it quite expensive in the long run.

### "Active Campaign outperforms the competition"

November 5, 2024

5.0

The user-friendliness is sometimes a little tricky. You have to spend a lot of time with ACC to find out the functions and use them correctly. The support is very good. The variety with CRM is great. Creating emails with templates is really very good. Basically, I think the ACC software is really brilliant. A webinar function like Funnelcockpit would be desirable or expandable.

Pros

I have a lot of software functions bundled in one place in ACC.

Cons

Working online on ACC is sometimes difficult because the site is not accessible. It is constantly loading...

### "Der Klassiker unter den fähigen E-Mail-Marketing Tools"

February 3, 2026

5.0

Nach wie vor für mich das Go-To-Tool bzgl. E-Mail-Marketing. Kein anderes Tool bietet so viele ausgefeilte Möglichkeiten.

Pros

Nach wie vor die Automationen – und zu einem guten Teil der Editor. Es ist einfach ein großes Sammelbecken, das man sich gut organisieren kann, um seine Kontakte gezielt anzusprechen.

Cons

Die neuen KI-Funktionen sind noch sehr generisch. Auch das Preisgefüge ist für einige Nutzer inzwischen sehr teuer geworden.
